Approximately an hour later, Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton finally made it to the top of the stairs, where they connected to a white, palace-like structure.

When they ventured further up, they saw an ancient city gateway with the words 'Southern Sky Entrance' written on it.

Dense mist surrounded the city walls, making the place look like paradise.

Through the mist, they could see soldiers in armors patrolling everywhere.

The entire setting reminded them of heavenly palaces they had seen in television dramas.

However, they couldn't see anything else when they peeked further down.

There was nothing but white mist beneath them.

There were two guards by the city gateway who hastily approached them when they came into sight.

"Who are you?" they asked simultaneously.

"Where is this place?" Xyla asked in return.

"This is the heavenly palace, of course," one guard replied haughtily.
